Surviving as a Mage in a Magic Academy - Chapter 466

Chapter 466

Chapter 466

Fortunately, Yi-Han did not send the death knight to the punishment room in anger at a single word like its master.

Instead, he answered with a calm expression.

"I certainly do take a lot of classes."

-!-

The death knight was slightly moved.

To listen to the words of a subordinate like that.

That boy had the qualities of a wise ruler, unlike the skull principal.

Of course, he could become like the skull principal when he got older, but for now...

"But some of the lectures were forced on me by the principal."

-The master did such a thing?-

The death knight was startled.

It knew the skull principal was a crazy great mage, but to think he was crazy enough to arbitrarily add student lectures.

It was truly surprising.

-What lectures did he add?-

"The Basic Dance and Socializing lecture."

-That much is...-

Dance and socializing were quite enjoyable and pleasant lectures compared to other lectures. Even more so since the study load wasn't high.

-What other lectures are there?-

"...Hmm. Come to think of it, that's all."

-...???-

The death knight was slightly flustered.

If the only lecture the skull principal forced him to take was just one...

Then did he just sign up for the rest on his own?

'Oops.'

The death knight successfully shut its mouth this time.

If it messed with him and his temper turned foul like the skull principal's, it would only be their loss.

A gloomy morning without a glimpse of the sun arrived, and the students moved their steps to the pier while yawning. Each of their backpacks contained the lunch boxes they had prepared all night.

"Gainando. So what did you put in besides pancakes?"

"I only put in pancakes?"

"...Huh? You only put in pancakes? Really?"

"Ah. I did put in other things too."

"What did you put in?"

"Honey, whipped cream, and strawberry jam."

"...So in the end, you only put in pancakes, right?"

Of course, each person's lunch box varied greatly.

Even using the same ingredients, it was an individual's skill difference in what dishes they composed and packed.

"Princess. As expected, you're excellent."

"These diverse and balanced meats!"

Adenart's followers praised the various meat dishes packed in a sturdy wooden box.

In their view, the lunch box that accurately cooked and packed various types of meat by grilling, steaming, marinating, frying, and boiling without a single error seemed perfect.

However, Yi-Han, who saw it while passing by, was startled.

'What kind of crazy lunch box is that?'

A lunch box packed with only meat without any special side dishes or dishes.

Beef, pork, poultry, rabbit meat, etc. A lunch box doesn't become balanced just by having a variety of meats.

"Hey. Rowena."

"What is it?"

"There's bread, rice, and fruits left inside, so tell the princess to take out some meat and fill it in."

"Pardon? Why should I do that?"

Yi-Han newly felt that even though Rowena looked fine, she was from the White Tiger Tower.

The diet of the White Tiger Tower students was to the extent that it wouldn't be strange if they got scurvy...

"Rowena. Do you trust me?"

"Pardon? Yes..."

"You know that I have a lot of contact with the principal, right?"

"Yes. You're close with him."

Yi-Han momentarily wanted to grab Rowena by the collar but held back.

"...Yeah. Anyway. What do you think it means when someone like me says this?"

"...Ah!"

Rowena made an expression of realization. And she quickly nodded.

"I understand. The principal dislikes meat!"

"No, that's not it... No. Nevermind. Go and tell her quickly."

Rowena hurriedly ran off. The princess tilted her head at the words but changed the lunch box as told for now.

Swish!

In the distance, eerie rafts made of bones began to swarm like a fleet.

Floating on top of that fleet was a familiar undead great mage.

Eek...!

The students got off the boat in a half-wet state.

At that moment, a gust of wind rushed in and made a few students fall into the water.

"Hey. Everyone, take out the ropes and tie each other."

“What kind of picnic...”

The skull principal grumbled, but Yi-Han ignored him and distributed ropes to his friends.

And so, the students sat on the island, spreading out cloth and blankets. Yonaire muttered next to them.

"This is the first time I've been on such a gloomy picnic in my life."

The friends nodded their heads.

There was only one thing the students wanted right now.

They hoped this picnic would end quickly!

"Let's at least start a fire first."

"Yeah."

As the students took out fire starters and were about to wave their staffs, the skull principal smiled brightly.

As expected, the fire was quickly extinguished by the fierce wind and rain.

"Everyone, step aside a bit. I'll start it."

When Yi-Han waved his staff, flames fiercely devoured the firewood and rose up. The skull principal frowned.

'Ruining a fun picnic.'

“Everyone, listen while eating your lunch boxes. The next plan for today's picnic is... Hmm. A treasure hunt.”

"?"

Gainando, who was grilling pancakes, tilted his head.

"Where is the treasure?"

"..."

"...Heh."

The friends, having already experienced it once, were preparing underwater breathing magic with their staffs in a resigned expression.

“Ah. This is also included in the score.”

"Can't you really just remove the word picnic?"

—

...

The treasures weren't bad.

The problem was the weather.

Clack clack clack clack clack clack-

"Un, undead summoned?"

"No. That's the sound of Gainando's teeth chattering."

The students, who had been wandering around with the help of the devouring-ship fish, were feeling the true face of the spirit flood to the bone.

In front of nature, the magic of mages was too weak.

Magic that preserved body temperature like disappeared in an instant...

"Yonaire! Did you see? Did you see?! succeeded! It doesn't burn in fire!"

"...Yi, Yi-Han. I don't think now is the time to be happy."

Yonaire pulled Yi-Han's clothes and stopped him.

The other students were looking at Yi-Han in astonishment.

"...Ahem. I'm sorry, everyone. I failed so many times."

"Ah, no. Wardanaz. That can happen."

"Right. It's natural to be happy about a successful magic."

"Right? I should try it a few more times."

Yi-Han rarely excitedly cast and walked around. The friends watched with an indescribable expression.

"Don't you know Wardanaz's heart? There's no way Wardanaz would act like that just because of a single magic."

Asan rebuked his friends.

"Then?"

"You guys must be shivering so much from the cold, so he's doing that. How worried he must be."

"Ah!"

"That's...!"

Gainando tilted his head.

'He just looks excited though?'

Of course, he didn't say anything because it seemed like he would be pushed into the sea by his friends if he did.

While Yi-Han was casting warming magic on his friends, the skull principal waited calmly.

Of course, it was true that the sight was unpleasant to him, but the picnic had only just begun.

“It's about time for them to come...”

"...What else did you do?"

"It can't be the sirens again, right?"

The Black Tortoise Tower students muttered in disgust.

Then the skull principal asked in surprise.

“Who used the sirens first?!”

"..."

"..."
